Art Trades & Requests

[Utora]

I'm really looking to draw other people's characters to better develope my skills (and to draw, period), as well as see how other people draw my fursona so I'm open to an art trade!

I can also take one request right now, so if you'd like something (full color, lines, no background!) I can take one request. (Request i.e. you do not have to trade art in return for a piece of my work)

Art Trades Open

[Nuduli]

Oh wow, that's great work! I'd love to make a request from you! :D

[Guntur]

Does Human portrait included Utora?

[Utora]

Yes I can do a human so long as I have a reference or something to look at while making it, if you understand what I mean. I can take Nuduli & Fendi for requests if you guys want, still open for art trades though.

[Nuduli]

Awesome, I've been wantin' my fursona drawn since '96 xD Thanks so much! Now I have a question, is there a specific way to go about this? I've never requested before, so I wasn't sure how it worked.

[Utora]

If you have any references to your character (previous images, similar images, etc) link them. If not it's ok. Otherwise, the more detailed you are in your description the more like your character it'll be in the end. So I need things like mane fur color, belly fur culur, tail tuft color, eye color, inner brown color, nose color, inner ear color, any markings? Is your character long and lanky (like Scar or Zira) or big and buff (like Mufasa and Sarabi). Also there's certain nose types, the point one like Scar's, or the broad one like Simba's and Mufasa's etc. Those are a few ways to make the details clear. If your character is not a lion, that's fine too but point that out and list all the features still. Then, what kind of impression do you want; the character sitting, happy, angry, sad, aggressive, or just anything at all? Let me know.

:cheese:

[Nuduli]

Okie dokie, I'll do my best to be as detailed as possible and post it up asap! :cheese:

[Guntur]

Here's my direct reference. The only things that doesn't change are the hairstyle, the glasses, the shirt and the pose. =)

My only extra addon are the beard and the hair color. :) The hair color are platinum blonde and the beard color are around black.

To be honest with you, this would be my look within 6 month, I will likely bleach my hair into white and probably a longer hair. :lol:

[Nuduli]

My best reference for the design (nose, age..etc.) may be this one (http://fanart.lionking.org/Artists/Kristin_O/QueenNakita.jpg). The overall fur colorization... possibly... these colors (http://www.deviantart.com/download/167889711/Uru____Color_Model_by_SummerGal7.png). I was thinking the eye color could be a golden brown.

The impression I think would be something like this (http://www.wf.net/~mufasa/mufasa1.jpg) looking more stern but not angry.

I really hope this helps. =S

If I need to add/change things, let me know!

@ Fendi: do you want the beard to be similar to the one in the link or was it reference for color? & I'm assuming you want a full body piece done. :P

@ Nuduli: Thanks for the information, so far it's good and I can work with it, if there's anything else I might need I'll message you. :cheese:

[Nuduli]

Whoo hoo! I'm all excited, lol, I can't wait to see what you do!

[Guntur]

@ Fendi: do you want the beard to be similar to the one in the link or was it reference for color? & I'm assuming you want a full body piece done. :P


I want the beard similar to the picture, and the beard color are black like I do.
Full body? LOL if you want to, but I want an upper body shot, from the head to the hips as the picture suggest. ; ) well you can choose between the hips or full body. : P

[Sombolia]

I'd love to do an art trade Utora :)

[Utora]

Sure Sombolia! Sorry for a late response, been dead on my feet working. I have the lines finished for your character Nuduli, I'll show you tghe progress at some point via msn, same to you Guntur.

@ Sombolia;; you can message me your character and I'll respond with mine, etc when I can find a reasonable reference. :lol: But I can still start on yours whenever. Or you can post it here..whatever works...I can just access lea messages easier via my android phone than the actual forum. Now, I'm rambling.

[Nuduli]

Awesome! I can't wait to see it!

[Guntur]

Alright Utora. ;) Whatever it work. ;) or you could post on facebook and tag me there, anything is fine by me friend. =)
